We just made it a whole lot easier to manage manual and free bookings inside Easy Appointment Booking—especially when it comes to getting paid.
What’s New?
You can now:
- ✅ Choose whether to create a Shopify draft order when making a manual or free booking
- 💳 Send an invoice or mark a booking as paid directly from inside Easy Appointment Booking
- 🔄 Avoid switching between Shopify Admin and our app just to collect payment
How it works
Let’s say you’re booking an appointment on behalf of a customer. Before, you had to jump into Shopify to send an invoice, manage payments, or create a draft order manually. Now? It’s all built in.
This unlocks:
- Deferred payments: Create a booking now, and invoice the customer later.
- Manual bookings: Take phone or in-person appointments and send a payment link with one click.
- Free sessions with upsells: Offer a free appointment and still have a way to charge for add-ons afterward.
How to Use It
- Go to Settings and turn on the setting to create a draft order for free bookings.

- Make a free booking (through the admin).
- Go to the Bookings tab.
- You will see 3 new buttons beside the booking:
- View Draft Order: Lets you view the draft order in Shopify.
- Send Invoice: lets you send an invoice to the customer. The price on the invoice will be the same as the product (service) price.
- Mark as paid: This lets you mark the draft order as paid in Shopify, if you collect the payment outside of Shopify (ex: Cash payments)
